More than 800 people across the U.S. have been charged in the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, which left officers bloodied and sent lawmakers into hiding, and federal authorities continue to make new arrests practically every week.

The charges against members of the angry pro-Trump mob range from low-level misdemeanors for those who only entered the Capitol to felony seditious conspiracy charges against far-right extremists.

It's the largest prosecution in the history of the Justice Department, whose leader, Attorney General Merrick Garland, has vowed to hold accountable "all January 6th perpetrators, at any level."

As the U.S. House committee investigating the attack prepares to hold a series of public hearings to detail its findings, here's a look at where the criminal cases stand:

____

WHO HAS BEEN CHARGED?

Authorities have arrested people in practically all 50 states in connection with the riot. They include former police officers and U.S. military veterans, a five-time Olympic swimming medalist and the son of a New York City judge.

Hundreds of people who went inside but didn't take part in any destruction or violence are facing only misdemeanor crimes like picketing in the Capitol and disorderly conduct that call for up to six months behind bars.

More than 250 people have been charged with assaulting or impeding law enforcement who were trying to protect the Capitol, including more than 85 accused of using a deadly or dangerous weapon or causing serious bodily injury to an officer. Others have been accused of assaulting members of the media — one an Associated Press photographer — or destroying media equipment.

The most serious cases have been brought against members of two far-right extremist groups, the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys.

The leaders of both groups have been arrested and remain locked up while they await trial later this year for seditious conspiracy, which alleges a plot to forcibly oppose the lawful transfer of presidential power. The rarely used Civil War-era charge calls for up to 20 years in prison.

WHO HAS BEEN CONVICTED?

More than 300 people have pleaded guilty to a slew of crimes, including conspiracy and assault. Among them are three Oath Keepers who have admitted to seditious conspiracy, are cooperating with investigators and could testify against their fellow extremists at trial.

There have been seven trials so far in the District of Columbia's federal court. The first five juries convicted the riot defendants of all charges.

The convicted include Thomas Webster, a 20-year New York Police Department veteran who attacked an officer during the riot. Webster claimed he was defending himself when he tackled the officer and grabbed his gas mask.

Jurors also rejected the defense of an Ohio man who claimed he was only "following presidential orders" from former President Donald Trump when he stormed the Capitol. Dustin Byron Thompson was convicted of obstructing Congress from certifying the electoral vote and other charges.

A judge decided two other cases without a jury, acquitting one of the defendants and partially acquitting the other.

U.S. District Court Judge Trevor McFadden, who was appointed by Trump, convicted Otero County, New Mexico, Commissioner Couy Griffin of illegally entering restricted Capitol grounds, but acquitted him of engaging in disorderly conduct.

In the other misdemeanor case, McFadden found Matthew Martin of New Mexico not guilty of charges that he illegally entered the Capitol and engaged in disorderly conduct, saying it was reasonable for Martin to believe that outnumbered police officers allowed him and others to enter through the Rotunda doors.

WHAT ABOUT THE PUNISHMENTS?

Nearly 200 people have been sentenced so far. The punishments have ranged from probation to more than five years behind bars. About 100 people who were charged with lower level crimes have avoided going to prison, although some of those received time in home detention.

The longest sentence — more than five years — was given to Robert Palmer of Largo, Florida, who threw a wooden plank and sprayed a fire extinguisher at officers before hurling the fire extinguisher at them.

Others who received lengthy sentences include Jacob Chansley, the spear-carrying rioter whose horned fur hat, bare chest and face paint made him one of the more recognizable figures in the attack. Chansley, who called himself "QAnon Shaman," got about 31/2 years behind bars after admitting to entering the Senate chamber and writing a note to Vice President Mike Pence that said: "It's only a matter of time, justice is coming."

WHAT'S NEXT?

The two most high-profile trials — involving the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys — are expected to take place this summer and fall.

Henry "Enrique" Tarrio, who was once the Proud Boys' top boss, and four others linked to the group were charged on Monday with seditious conspiracy after previously facing other conspiracy counts. They are scheduled to stand trial beginning Aug. 9.

Tarrio, who has since stepped down from his post as the group's chairman, was arrested in a separate case two days before the riot and was not at the Capitol on Jan. 6. But he is accused of helping put into motion the violent attack.

The trial for the Oath Keepers leader, Stewart Rhodes, and four other members and associates the group is scheduled to start Sept. 26. Prosecutors say the Oath Keepers plotted for weeks to try to overturn the election results and prepared for a siege by purchasing weapons and setting up battle plans.

Authorities are still searching for many suspects, including the person who planted two pipe bombs outside the offices of the Republican and Democratic national committees the night before the melee.

Facebook's parent company Meta announced Thursday that they had removed many accounts affiliated with a far-right extremist group.

The Associated Press reported that around 480 Facebook and Instagram accounts, pages, and groups associated with the Proud Boys were taken down. The social media company banned the group in 2018.

The company said this year they've removed about 750 accounts linked to the Proud Boys, the news outlet reported.

Back in March, the Justice Department announced Henry “Enrique” Tarrio, the former leader of the Proud Boys, was charged with conspiracy for his alleged role in planning the attack on the U.S. Capital on Jan. 6, 2021.

Tarrio and four other members of the group were federally charged with seditious conspiracy in June, the Associated Press reported.

According to the news outlet, the trial is slated to begin on Dec. 12.

Nearly every day, more people are being indicted for their involvement in the siege on the U.S. Capitol on January 6.

It was a sobering day for many who never thought they would witness something like that happen.

It was also a pivotal day for violent extremism, as the insurrection showed today’s greatest terrorism threat does not come from abroad, but rather from our fellow Americans.

“The public face of terrorism and how the public perceives terrorism has changed,” said Austin Barber, a graduate assistant at the University of Arkansas’ Terrorism Research Center, our country’s oldest terrorism research center.

Barber is currently working on a project called Dotcoms to Pipe Bombs, a research initiative that studies how online extremism manifests itself in our real world. On Nov. 3, the TRC received an $893,721 grant from the National Institute of Justice for the research project. It hopes to shed more light on how and why radical extremism exists in hopes we can better identify it and mitigate its harm.

“There’s been domestic terrorism in the United States for a very long time, but we’ve only started now, as a public, started to pick up on it,” said Barber.

In 2001, after 9/11, it may have been unheard of to think our greatest threat comes from our very own, but today, it is fact as the Center for Strategic and International Studies found white supremacists and like-minded extremists conducted two-thirds of terrorist plots and attacks in the United States in 2020.

“Around 2008, 2009, with the election of Barack Obama, with the great recession, we saw an increase in patriot groups and militia groups,” said Jeff Gruenewald, the director of the Terrorism Research Center.

Post 9/11, most of the TRC’s research looked at violent extremism and how it fueled terrorism, but since then, Osama Bin-Laden has been killed, and seven other top-ranking al-Qaeda leaders have been killed or captured as well.

It has shifted Gruenewald’s research to U.S. nationals as last year the U.S. Department of Homeland Security concluded that “racially and ethnically motivated violent extremists, specifically white supremacist extremists, will remain the most persistent and lethal threat in the homeland.”

“It was before the insurrection that we knew that there was violent potential on the far-right, but I think it more so brought it to the public’s attention,” said Gruenewald. “Yesterday, it was radical Islamic terrorism. Today, it’s extreme far-right, but we need to be collecting data and analyzing patterns for all movements.”

This is not to say foreign terror attacks do not exist. Al-Qaeda’s influence is as strong as ever. Today, there are four times as many jihadist terrorist groups designated as such by the U.S. State Department as there were on 9/11, but due to their disorganization and hyper-politicized nature of our country, experts believe the greatest threat comes from our very own.

“We are starting to understand that there’s a lot more to it than the one face value,” said Barber.
